The challenges and problems are clear to our sector. However, ensuring policymakers and the public share our views and approaches require a strong and clear re-framing of the social and affordable housing sector, supported by strong evidence, at the heart of the new paradigm needed to building back better for people and the planet.
Investors are increasingly applying green and social taxonomy factors to their financing conditions. The race for space ensuing from the global pandemic will result in changing investment patterns and demand in the housing sector. Navigating the impact of this radically changing operating environment while grappling with our decarbonisation mission and growing demand for new supply requires joined-up thinking across the sector.
The time has come to meet again in person with peers from the sector. For this reason, Housing Europe is organising the 3rd Housing Europe Leaders Summit to bring together leaders from the public, cooperative and social housing sector to take stock of the new reality facing the sector.
The Summit will take place in Geneva on the eve of the launch of the joint Housing Europe, UNECE HLM, UN-Habitat Housing2030 study on October, 6th at the Intergovernmental Conference at the Palais des Nations.
